They've got nothing else to do except make videos until all the approvals are finished.

Might sounds like a surprise for you but 95% of population lives outside of US.

We are actively working with Jeti developing new products. We have new R5 receiver coming that will be 5 channel/Satellite Rx.
Also Mezon ESCs are in production as well as new PowerBox and much is more coming.

Can I setup my ESC Jeti Spin 99 Opto via JetiBox emulator in my DC-16? When I connect ESC to receiver (in the telemetry IN through a wire for programming ESC), I see it in the menu, but settings and navigation not availablly...

Would this new receiver be a full range receiver? I have a greater use for 4 and 5 channel full range receivers for gliders.

The fact that nothing below 9 channels is full range, have kept me from pre-ordering the DC-16.

thanks

The first batch of receivers to be FCC approved will be the R11, R9, R7, R6 Lite, and R6 indoor. All of these with the exception of the R6 indoor are full range receivers. As ZB noted above, we have the R5 as well as the R14 and R18 coming too so there should be a receiver available for any application.

A quick note regarding the overall FCC certification project. The radios will be approved. We are working as hard as we can and we are very close.

I stand corrected for my earlier post. Another case of Jeti documentation being plain wrong :-)

In my post I said they weren't all full range. This was based on Jeti documentation. For example I quote the figures for the R7 & R9

R7
Power output: 6dbm
Receiver sensitivity: -98dbm

R9
Power output: 20dbm
Receiver sensitivity: -106dbm

General laws of physics suggest that the R9 would have more range by quite some considerable amount over the R7. You should also lose telemetry earlier on the R7 as much lower power. Bottom section of this link is good reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_(electronics)

All I meant in my post above was the receiver specs are wrong as Jeti USA say they are all full range: see post above. One receiver can't have longer range than the other and both be full range.

Personally I stick to receivers like the R6 in models like 48" MXS and receivers like the R8 & R9 in my F3A and 50cc models but I'm probably just wasting money.

I was once told that the only difference with the indoor receivers was the null part of the antenna length. as Esprit says above. The reduction in path diversity not being a problem indoors.

All that those dbm figures tell you is that one receiver is a bit more sensitive than another. What it doesn't tell you is what the range IS under specific conditions. e.g. if the -98dbm gave 2km range, the the -106dbm could probably give 4km range (guess!), but the average modeller will never usually know the difference unless he's flying out of sight.
